Whether you like Linux or not, this is a circular argument. It attempts to answer why Linux is beneficial by analogizing Linux to exercise, good diet, etc. which itself presupposes that Linux is as beneficial as those things.
Beyond that, a lot of things you can do from a Linux shell can also be done through Windows Powershell even if the syntax is clunkier and documentation is harder to find. Windows has not been standing still.
